The LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) panel displays one 16-character line at a time. Messages longer than 16 characters are broken into 16-character sections and are alternated in the display.

The LCD panel displays messages on the current status of the printer. Job-related messages refer to the status of the job closest to completion. Media-related messages indicate the type of paper and ribbon that are loaded in the printer. Messages also appear when the paper tray is empty, when the printer's cover is open, or when errors occur.
